i Raises
From page 1
the employees deserve more mon-
ey while the community is suffer-
ing," said Councilor Scott McKee
Jr. "I have a hard time going out
into the community and justifying
it (giving raises)."
At Safeway, where he
worked, employees have had to
deal with three years with no rais-
es and counting every paper clip,
McKee said.
"We are suffering, and we're
really having a hard time fight
now," McKee said. With all of the
cuts, including no savings into the
Building Reserve Fund, the city
should freeze all of the pay that it
can right now.
Budget Committee member
Dave Trask said it is difficult to
tell the people of Sweet Home
that the city is concerned about
funding and theft grant raises.
Employees with Weyerhaeuser
or Les Schwab may not get raises
this year. Trask said his last raise
before retiring from CenturyLink
was 1 percent.
"It would set a good prece-
dent," Trask said of freezing wag-
es. "Do they deserve a raise? I
don't know. Probably do, I guess.
The bottom line is, as a Budget
Committee, I think it would be ir-
responsible not to bring this to the
attention of the City Council."
For/ner Budget Committee
member and Mayor Dave Halley
agreed: "What I think I see is that
the councilors think they have an
obligation to hold the line where
they can hold the line." Council-
ors brought the issue to the Bud-
get Committee's attention, look-
ing for a consensus to take to the
council, rather than the council
simply adopting a budget with a
freeze with no discussion from
the Budget Committee.
All salaries are indexed to
maintain a differential between
supervisors and the employees
they supervise, said City Manag-
er Craig Martin. Freezing salaries
would change that differential,
which was set by council policy
in the late 1990s.

cy'that binds a council 15 years
down the road," Halley said. That
policy can be changed by the
council.
Budget Committee member
Gerrit Schaffer said the raises
for non-represented employees
amounts to about $26,000. in con-
text of the $22 million budget it's
not a large amount of money. He
said he is in the middle on wheth-
er the wages should be frozen.
Committee member Bruce
Hobbs said it might make sense
to use that money to restore a
position, like the half-time posi-
tion at the library; but he is kind
of on the fence regarding a wage
freeze.
Police Chief Bob Burford,
whose department has faced in-
creasing revenue shortfalls due to
compression in the last year, said
he is open to a freeze on his sal-
ary, but not for his department's
supervisors.
"If the council asked me or
my boss (Martin), I don't have
a problem with that," he Said.
The Police Department's two
sergeants and communications
supervisors are holding the de-
partment .together, working their
shifts and then staying on call
constantly while off-duty to help
deal with the department's staff-
ing shortage, he said.
Burford asked that the com-
mittee and council grant wage in-
creases for his department, espe-
cially since patrol officers in some
other cities actually make more
than Sweet Home's sergeants.
Mayor Craig Fentiman asked
the Budget Committee to leave
the funding for the positions alone
so that the council will have the
option to decide whether to grant
the raises or freeze wages.
Present during the discussion
were councilors Fentiman, Mary-
beth Angulo, Jim Gourley, Mike
Hall, McKee and Mahler and
committee members .Andrew Al-
len, Chuck Begley, Hobbs, Greg
Korn, Schaffer and Trask.
